As someone sensitive to scents, I personally enjoyed it and appreciated that it wasn't overpowering when applied to the skin. Texture: Being a hydrating primer, it has a nice emulsion-like consistency that applies smoothly, unlike traditional primers. The translucent formula feels lightweight and non-sticky, so makeup doesn't feel heavy on top. It doesn't cause pilling or make your base makeup separate. Moisturizing: It leaves the skin feeling hydrated and supple upon application. Packaging: The outer packaging has a clean, simple design. The pump dispenser makes it easy to use and keeps the product hygienic. Effectiveness: While it doesn't produce dramatic results, it's better than using nothing. I've been using it for months, and I find that makeup adheres better, there's less skin flaking, and it seems to even out my complexion. It also helps maintain hydration, making my skin feel less dry. Personal verdict: While it's better than using nothing, the difference is subtle. If you have a good skincare and base makeup routine, this might not be essential. Considering its effects and price, I'd have to think twice about repurchasing.
ConsLack of dramatic effects: I have dry skin and always struggle with my base makeup (cushion) looking patchy around my eyes and cheeks, and with texture and flakiness around my nose. I bought this primer hoping it would address these issues. However, after applying it to problem areas before my base makeup, I found that it didn't dramatically improve coverage or makeup adherence as I had hoped. Price: Considering the amount you get, it's not particularly affordable or good value for money. While not extremely expensive, it's on the pricier side.
TipTip 1: Banila Co offers various types of primers, so consider your skin type and desired effects when choosing one! Tip 2: Apply this primer after skincare but before sunscreen or makeup. For extra dry areas, try applying a second layer.

It also tackles deep dryness, reducing the appearance of dead skin cells.
ConsThe adherence isn't particularly impressive. Perhaps due to excessive sweating in summer, it tends to lift off after a while...

It absorbs well and creates a thin layer of hydration, preventing any patchiness.
ConsIt did slightly pill under matte cushions. While this might be due to my lack of exfoliation, it worked fine with dewy or cream-type cushions. However, it fell a bit short with very matte cushions like Laneige.

I bought this product hoping it would help, and initially, it seemed to improve how my makeup applied.
ConsHowever, after some time, I noticed that certain areas started to look patchy again. I'm not sure if it's because the product was fully absorbed or what.
TipDespite the initial improvement, the long-term effectiveness wasn't quite what I had hoped for.
